Chapter 409 Carriage Upgrade
Chapter 409 Carriage Upgrade
The team members were all busy with their own tasks, but as the team leader, I was responsible for the construction of the train.
"First, let's take stock of the supplies."
Su Li reviewed the team's supplies list and took stock of their gains this time.
This time, they swept through the steel and timber markets of four worlds, reaping a large amount of materials. Each timber market can provide approximately 200 units of attribute timber, and each steel warehouse can provide 100 units each of titanium ingots and platinum ingots.
Upon seeing this discovery, Su Li couldn't help but complain, "If we had encountered this world earlier, we wouldn't have had to travel to so many worlds."
However, this is just a figure of speech. The gains in this world are great, but the risks are correspondingly great. Without Song Mingyu's actions, on the last day, with only one viral parasite that had absorbed the life force of all four cities, it was practically guaranteed that they would have to face this peak Silver-level ability user.
Given that Su Li and his group were at the Iron level at the time, fighting against a peak Silver level expert would have been extremely difficult, especially with the unpredictable factor of Mo behind them. Furthermore, at the Iron level, their resistance was weak, making it difficult for them to cope with the GX virus. After infection, the virus fusion event on the sixth day would extract the virus from their bodies.
If the enemy obtains their own life information, they may gain supernatural abilities similar to their skills.
Considering that Mo has already managed to create a Klein force field through the decay of high-energy matter, it doesn't seem too far-fetched for him to develop superpowers similar to solar and lunar eclipses.
The thought of his team facing swords with temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees Celsius when they were at the Iron level made Su Li feel uneasy.
Not to mention, in this world, you can't collect attribute stones. After you've finished exploring, you have to go to other worlds to collect stones.
Therefore, this idea is just wishful thinking. In reality, even if Su Li knew the potential gains of this world, she would not choose it during the Iron Age, as the risks were too great.
After some random thoughts, Su Li summarized what she had gained this time.
In terms of supplies, gold, silver, copper, and iron were replenished to a certain extent: 3941 iron ingots, 4010 copper ingots, 4520 silver ingots, and 4531 gold ingots. The amount replenished was not large.
It mainly supplemented the production of titanium ingots and platinum ingots, with titanium ingots currently at 501 and platinum ingots at 445.
There was basically no gain in elemental fragments; the amount was about the same as before: 4760 elemental fragments and 430 elemental crystals.
I also have enchanted iron ingots and enchanted copper ingots created using the enchanting table. They are divided into five elements, with 80 of each, totaling 400.
The attributes of wood, in the order of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, are 300, 286, 160, 271, and 300 respectively. The attributes of stone, in the order of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, are 140, 0, 0, 223, and 140 respectively.
In addition to materials, Zurich and his team also acquired a heavy truck, a truck crane, a forklift, two large off-road vehicles, and a large number of electronic components.
Then there are Survival Coins. Currently, including those from rewards, those I accumulated before, and those I earned from selling some useless items, I have a total of 33210 Survival Coins.
After inspecting all the supplies, Zurich began upgrading the train.
After the locomotive evolves to level 6, many new buildings and upgrade buildings are unlocked. These new buildings all have one prerequisite: they can only be built on the level 6 locomotive or on a specialized carriage.
The so-called specialized carriages are the newly unlocked carriages after the locomotive is unlocked to level 6.
The carriages are divided into four levels: basic, general, excellent, and advanced. After upgrading to the advanced level, further upgrades will transform it into a professional carriage.
Depending on the bonus, different carriages can be selected, and the functions of many carriages overlap.
For example, there are processing carriages and industrial carriages. The former provides bonuses to all processing functions, while the latter only provides bonuses to mechanical, industrialized production.
There are thousands of different types of carriages, and players can choose different types of carriages according to their room layout.
Zurich had already chosen the type of carriage that would be evolved from.
[Passenger Carriage: Provides advantages to passengers' lives and spiritual practice]
[Agricultural carriage: Provides a bonus for animal husbandry and crop farming]
Each of the carriage blueprints cost Zuli 2000 units of survival coins, so that's a total of 4000 survival coins gone.
After purchasing the carriages, Su Li checked their consumption.
Fortunately, the energy consumption of both types of carriages is far less than that of upgrading the locomotive to level 6.
Su Li was well aware of the reason: "After all, upgrading the front of the vehicle to level 6 was a qualitative change. The second qualitative change was when upgrading from level 10 to level 11."
[Professional Carriage Upgrade Module]
[100 Black Iron Grade Wood, 100 Black Iron Grade Stone, 300 Silver Ingots, 200 Gold Ingots, 200 Elementalized Iron Ingots, 200 Elementalized Copper Ingots, 100 Titanium, 100 Platinum Ingots, 50 Five-Element Crystals]
The black iron grade stone was a bit inferior, but it didn't matter. Su Li opened the high-end player trading group and exchanged it for other materials at a 1:1 ratio.
Zuli clicked "Build" and then waited for the plugin to finish being created.
The next day, the plugins were completed. Su Li called out the team members and then used two upgrade plugins on the carriages.
The plug-in turned into light, enveloping the two carriages. Then the carriages also emitted light. When the light faded, a new carriage appeared in front of Su Li and the others.
The new carriages are more luxurious and look more robust because they have used special materials to modify the train. The entire train faintly emits a red glow, as if flames are flowing in the black steel.
"It's not as boxy in appearance anymore, and there are more windows too," Su Li commented. The windows on the train are somewhat like illusions; although they function as windows, their actual performance is the same as the train body.
The more worldly-wise Sofia looked around and said, "It looks a bit like the carriages of a sightseeing train I've seen before."
Su Li was a little surprised, "You've seen sightseeing trains?"
"Well, I've never ridden it, but when I dropped out of school to learn hunting from my grandfather, there was a long railway track in the forest where he often went hunting. My grandfather told me that it used to be used to transport timber, but as the timber was all cut down, the area was replanted, and the logging trains stopped coming. Later, in order to reuse the railway, the railway bureau opened a tourist route, and a tourist train passes through here every three days."
As Sofia spoke, a nostalgic look appeared in her eyes, "In winter, my grandfather and I often sat together in the snowfield, drinking freshly boiled soup and watching the trains drive away in the distance."
Ivan pondered for a moment, then clapped his hands. "I knew it! She looked familiar! I saw her picture in a classmate's travel magazine before. I said she was my sister, but nobody believed me, and I started to lose confidence. But it really is you!"
Su Li recalled a line of modern poetry she often heard before, and immediately adapted it: "You stand in the snowfield admiring the scenery, while someone in the train admires you."
